Roommates and A Whole Lotta Green

Living in a sorority requires some compromises. Mainly, that you get the whole dorm experience another three years and get to live with a roommate. So mostly, when I wake up I see things that don't have any personal value to me. I see the walls that were painted purple and blue years before I lived here and haven't been painted since on account of changing rules. I see pictures of my roommate and her friends, some I know some I don't. I see her very green bed and our very green drapes hanging over our matching closets and I see a picture of Gandhi that quite frankly gives me the creeps. I see things I own and pictures of my friends, the things Kae Loni sees when she wakes up. I wonder if she has the same thoughts as I do. This room is mine, but it isn't really. I have to move every semester so I never really get an established ownership. But it's a place to sleep and its fairly comfortable so really who am I to complain?
